Emergency Procedure

If you need to report an emergency to us such as injured or escaped livestock or damaged infrastructure please follow this procedure:

  1. Call the office on 01256 381190.
  2. If no one answers, wait for the answering message which will detail the name and mobile number of the member of staff who is currently on call.
  3. Phone the on-call member of staff who will then respond accordingly.

NOTES:

  • Please do not phone a member of staff directly unless you know they are on-call.

  • If you are unsure if a particular situation qualifies as an emergency then please phone the on-call member of staff anyway so that they can make the decision on how to proceed.

  • Most importantly of all – please do not report injuries or sick animals via the blog alone – always call the emergency on-call contact.


    Thank you!

Some were suffering from large numbers of flies including 145 and her calf who were under the trees where the lick used to be. I noticed that she too had a weepy left eye that was particularly attracting the flies. One brown cow that was separated from the rest was walking down the track down from Long Bottom towards the lick bellowing. I wondered if it might have been her calf that died.
